# St Michael & All Angels, Skelbrooke

St Michael and All Angels is a Grade II parish church on Straight Lane, Skelbrooke, South Yorkshire, in the Diocese of Sheffield.

## Overview

Historic England records a medieval church extensively rebuilt by Joseph Goddard after a major fire in 1872. The fabric is rubble limestone with red tile roofs. The plan is a west tower, three-bay nave with south porch, and two-bay chancel with a separate north chapel and a gabled south projection. The tower has a chamfered plinth, large quoins, a nineteenth-century west door with shouldered lintel, a three-light Decorated-style window above, pointed two-light belfry openings, a band with carved bosses, an embattled parapet and renewed pinnacles.

The gabled south porch has a hooded arch and an old carving of an angel with a shield. Inside, the listing notes a segmentally pointed tower arch, a truncated stone newel stair in the south buttress, a fourteenth-century piscina, and a fifteenth-century double-chamfered arcade into the chancel chapel. Stained glass includes a west window of 1885 and a north nave window by Heaton, Butler and Bayne. The parish notes that a church has stood on the site for almost 700 years.
